The Revelation Of Jesus Christ On The Future Of The World And The Creation Of The New Jerusalem
“Revelation” is the last book of the Bible; within it contains the prophecy of Jesus Christ on the future of the world and bringing about a world that has no pain, sorrow, sickness, or death; A world that holds the “New Jerusalem” where He will reign as our King. At the same time, Revelation tells of the birth pains the earth must go through on the way to the time Jesus will reign.
The apostle John wrote the book of Revelation when Jesus took him in spirit from Patmos, the island he had been imprisoned on because of his preaching the Good News, and told him to write down the things he was about to see. This was during a time when Christians, especially the disciples of Jesus, were persecuted, imprisoned, and even put to death because of their love for the Son of God.
The book of Revelation can be somewhat difficult to understand; however, before you begin reading, say a prayer that you will have a full understanding of the scripture as you read, then continue reading and perhaps reread it; you will find all the scripture is clear as to what is coming in the Time of the End.

“He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes I will give to eat from the tree of life, which is in the midst of the Paradise of God.” And to the angel of the church in Smyrna write, ‘These things says the first and the Last, who was dead, and came to life: I know your works, tribulation, and poverty (but you are rich); and I know the blasphemy of those who say they are Jews and are not, but are a synagogue if Satan. Do not fear any of those things which you are about to suffer. Indeed, the devil is about to throw some of you into prison, that you may be tested, and you will have tribulation ten days. Be faithful until death, and I will give you the crown of life. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. He who overcomes shall not be hurt by the second death.”’

He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.”’
